The Prince Charming System
(Season 3) Dilemma (3)

Having a sudden reality that made Chloe go into a deep shock, her mouth seemed to be tightly locked, her tongue was so faint as to say a word. His body seemed to be riveted for quite a long time.

Unknowingly, tears welled up in the eyes of the girl to flow wet both her cubby cheeks. Ray, who saw Chloe crying, gasped, his gaze turned anxious.

"Chloe–"

THE PLAQUE!

"....!"

"....!"

At that time Ray never thought it would end like this, he did not expect before would get painful treatment from his own sister. Her cheeks were so numb, Sick, And sick. Maybe you could say Chloe's palm will imprint there.

Eli was silent, He could do nothing but stand still. If he intervenes then the problem between Chloe and Ray gets bigger.

Ray was also no less surprised, his gaze was fixed on the face of the blue-covered girl who was already filled with tears.

"W-Why are you seeing me now?! Why not just for a long time?!" Chloe clenched her hands together, her tears never stopped flowing. "What kind of a brother are you? If you had met me in the first place, things wouldn't have been like this!"

"Don't know my struggle to find you! Looking for my real family! I got into a lot of trouble just looking for you, you don't know?!" Chloe snapped out of anger, The overflowing anger made it difficult to control herself.

Ray looked down miserably, Can't bear to stare at Chloe's face that seemed to hate her. He exclaimed softly. "I'm sorry...I'm sorry,"

"If you had met Chloe Amberly earlier, she wouldn't have died like this. You're late Ray Maximillian!" Chloe's inner self tried to control her anger, The girl clenched her hands even more.

Chloe looked at Ray, The young man looked hurt. The girl wiped her tears violently. For now, he needs to clear his mind.

"I know I was wrong, didn't see you in the first place. But I also did it all for your own good, "Ray explained softly.

"So what's your decision?"

Ray raised his hand intending to wipe Chloe's mane, but his hand was pushed aside by the girl.

THE BATS!

"I'm sorry...I need to think about it, Excuse me!"

Chloe turned around, her tears flowing. The girl hurriedly walked out of Ray's room without saying another word.

"Chloe..."

Ray stared wryly at the departure of the sister, He also could not stop her if it was not Chloe's own will to stop. Eli climbed up from his seat, slowly approaching Ray. He patted her on the shoulder, trying to calm the man down.

"I knew I was late to see him, but I didn't expect him to hate me like this" said Ray sadly, his head bowed to the floor below.

Screens of tears welled up in his eyes, Ray tried to cover his face with the back of his hand, His face reddened with tears.

"What am I supposed to do, Eli?" Ray's body trembled slightly, Feeling that soon his tears would spill.

"Let him alone first, the decision is in his hands. You can't force her to stay with you Ray, "Eli slowly hugs Ray from the side, wiping his fiance's back.

Ray hugged Eli back, He hid his face on Eli's shoulders. Even Eli could feel her shoulders wet, yet the girl just kept quiet and let Ray dissolve in her sadness.

He could not leave his fiancee in this state.

[Mansion Michelle]

Bruk!

"The fruit! It's so tired today,"

Al threw his body on the sofa while yawning widely, With a sleepy look he looked at Azura who was sitting on another sofa not far from him.

"Until when do you keep making those gloves, who do you want them to give you?" Tanya Al looked at Azura who was engrossed in making her knitted gloves.

"Ah, here's a gift for Brother Eli. Don't tell her yes," Azura's pinta smiled without stopping her activities.

"Kak Eli's birthday is still a long time, It's great to make his present," Chirps Revan without taking his eyes off the game he is playing.

"No problem, Preparing first is better,"

"I'm glad we finally got together like we used to," Ash opened his voice, eating the snacks available there.

"What do you think the usefulness of the living room is?" Reply Al glanced lazily at Ash beside him, who only responded to a small laugh from Ash.

"But it's a pity that Rafael and Eli's brother did not come together" Revan said.

"Well, they're busy" Al replies. While Azura chose silence after hearing the name Rafael called.

Taps! Taps! Taps!

Before long the sound of footsteps could be heard approaching, Ivy came down the stairs slowly so that he did not fall. Azura, Al, and Ash turn to look at the new Ivy (Except Revan who is fun playing his game).

"Pulse...Sis, have you seen Chloe? I haven't found her since this afternoon" Ivy asked as she approached the sofa where her sisters were sitting.

"Chloe's? I don't know, we didn't see it either" Ashes replied, not knowing.

"Don't he go with Eli's brother? I saw them leave this morning, I don't know where they are" Azura chirped.

"Ah, I see," Ivy's expression turned moody for a moment.

"What do you have to do with Chloe?" Ash asked looked at his purple-blossomed sister.

"Pulse...Nothing, I just want to play with him,"

Ivy shook her head to signify that she didn't want to play with Revan. "No need, Brother Revan, I'll just rest,"

Revan only looked at it for a moment before continuing his game.

Taps! Taps! Taps!

Cklek!

"I'm home,"

The voice made all the gazes fixed on a brown unraveling man who had just entered the Mansion, The man's appearance was a little messy with a black suit draped over his shoulders. For a moment the man slowly ruffled his own hair.

"Welcome, Brother Rafael, it seems that even today you are quite busy," Sapa Ash was friendly, because he knew his other brothers would definitely ignore the arrival of Rafael.

"Well, as always. I don't have time to just relax," Rafael loosened his tie, his tired Raut clearly drawn on his face.

His clothes were a little wet because he had broken through the rain after getting out of the car. Then her blue net glanced at her sisters gathered in the living room, including Ivy who had just taken a few steps up the stairs.

"Are you waiting for me?"

"Don't ge-er, we're just here to relax. After all who would wait for you to come home," replied Al staring lazily at his first brother.

The set!

"Sir Rafael did you meet Chloe?" Ivy who had been climbing the stairs now stopped stepping, Staring at Rafael who was still standing near the door.

"No, why look for the boy?"

"Oh, It's okay," Ivy's expression returned moody before continuing her steps.

"Hm?"

Geck! Geck! Geck!

Rafael, who was standing next to the door, opened the door immediately, confirming who was knocking on the door of his house at night.

Kkreey!

"Leo, Leon!" Rafael was a bit surprised because it turned out that the one who knocked on the door of his house was his 7th sister and 8th sister. The twins' clothes were also a bit wet even their hair too, then the shopping bags they brought were also covered with old water droplets exposed to rain.

But the most interesting attention is the existence of Chloe who is in the middle of the twins. The girl's appearance was more sad than Leo and Leon, All her clothes were wet from head to toe leaving no place dry even one of her clothes, Yes until Chloe's underwear was wet. Luckily Leo was kind enough to keep his sling bag in a crackle bag so it didn't get wet.

Chloe was lucky enough that the raindrops camouflaged her tears as well as her pitiful face, but still definitely her crooked eyes after crying would still be visible as well. He looks like a bum now.

"Come in first," Get Rafael out of the door, feeling sorry for the twins including Chloe.

"Eh? What's wrong with your looks?!" Al who had been lying down immediately took a sitting position after seeing the condition of the three who were sad.

"Cloe!" Ivy who was even still standing on the reflex stairs approached Chloe with an anxious expression, She gripped both of the girl's shoulders somewhat tightly.

"You why?! Why are your eyes swollen?! Who did this to you?!" Ivy asked repeatedly, She was getting more anxious when Chloe just silently looked at her without answering at all, Only the girl's tears flowed back down her cheeks.

"Ano...We accidentally found him in this state," Leo glanced at Chloe for a moment.

"Yes, we just finished shopping and on the way home we accidentally found her crying alone in the park, so we took her home," Leon said, Put the bag containing the groceries on the table.

"Ughh! Trouble it, you want cosplay to be a bum, huh?!" Said Revan cynically, Stopping his game.

Chloe bowed, It made Ivy immediately glared at Revan.

"Sir Revan!" The reprimand didn't take it and Ivy looked back at Chloe, not taking off her grip. "Don't listen to Brother Revan! Say something Chloe!"

"While I tell you, you won't understand my problem" Chloe said softly, leaving Ivy in front of her silent.

"You're upset?" Leo looked at him.

"No! Where am I upset!" Chloe's blue netra glared at Leo for a moment, then she covered her eyes with her arms for a moment.

Rafael though just staring at the interaction in silence, he also noticed Chloe's attitude. "I heard that if someone cries it is a sign that his condition is not stable, has not been able to think clearly. He must be uncomfortable being surrounded by people like this,"

"I want to be alone. I'm sorry," Chloe kept Ivy's hand off her shoulder slowly, before walking away from there. Hiding her sobs that wanted to spill back.

"Uh...It's because of Eli's brother, isn't it?" Said Ivy staring sadly at Chloe's back which was progressively disappearing from their sight.

"Don't know what happened to him, we better ask Kak Eli later," said Azura whose activity had stopped.

"Well! That kid from the first time he met was indeed a troublemaker, Make a fuss!" Revan scrambles for a moment of his mane, The memory of him meeting Chloe in the backstage first comes to his mind.

Ash looked down silently for a moment, staring at the cake in front of him. "Either why every time I look at Chloe, I feel Ian's presence nearby. But Ian has...,"

When Al heard him turn, he rebuked Ash. "Ash, don't talk about the dead!"

"The news has been spread, There are many rumors about the death of Ian and Raizel are unnatural. Why do you think?" Said Revan in the buzz.

"Sister Revan, Brother Al, Brother Ash. Please don't talk about your deceased group mates. Poor them, they will not calm down there," Sela Azura shook her head slowly so that her three brothers stopped their conversation.

"Is it wrong?" Revan glanced at the little.

Rafael pinched his forehead hearing the chatter of his sisters. "I've also heard the news, and information from the police about the fire tragedy of an empty house a few months ago. But it's true Azura said, You better not bring up the story again,"

"Sorry," said Al, Revan, and Ash in unison. Silence filled the room afterwards.

Leo and Leon have been in the kitchen since, Rafael immediately went to his room with Ivy. The rest continue their activities.
